Marianna Zhang got me Philippe Ariès's Centuries of Childhood, which is pretty much exactly what I wanted (and is even coincidentally one of the coolest things I've read about and described to people this year). Thanks so much!

My gift is also on its way, but it looks like it won't be delivered until later this week.
Edit: Stephen Eltinge is an excellent gift-giver. I'm now the proud owner of Sartor Resartus, Barrie's The Little Minister, Mythologies by Yeats, and Asimov's Guide to the Bible. Thanks, Stephen! I consider you a man of learning, wit, and parts.

Having recently received a copy of The Rise and Fall of the Zulu Nation and The Embarrassment of Riches from my (as-of-current) mystery sender, I just wanted to express my serious and legitimate gratitude. Whoever you are, your extreme generosity has really made my Christmas lovely. Thanks so much!

Thank you to whoever gifted me Ian McEwan's Nutshell! When I mentioned a book narrated by a fetus, Nutshell and Christopher Unborn were exactly the two books I was thinking of. I'm excited to read it. Thanks again and happy new year!

Many thanks to Rob for the copies of Lost Twin Cities and Mark Twain's Christian Science, both of which look to be supremely enjoyable, albeit in very different ways.
